This warranty is available to consumers only.
You are a consumer if you are the owner of a

and all electrical components and vertical pro-
jecting motor shaft sheath.

We suggest that you complete and return the
enclosed product registration card promptly 
to facilitate verification of the date of original

registration card does not eliminate the need
for the consumer to maintain the original proof
of purchase in order to obtain the warranty
benefits. In the event that you do not have
proof-of-purchase date, the purchase date for
purposes of this warranty will be the date of
manufacture.

or damages caused by accessories, replace-
ment parts or repair service other than those

WARNING:

Our DLC-5 Food Processor and other
Cuisinart

®

Food Processors and Accessories

have been carefully designed and manufac-
tured with the highest quality materials to
assure your satisfaction and safety when 
you use them. Although accessories sold 
by companies other than Cuisinart may be
compatible with your Cuisinart machine, 
they may also be extremely dangerous, 
and expose the user to serious injury.

We specifically caution you not to use other
brand accessories, such as juicers, which 
permit your machine to operate with exposed
blades or discs. We also caution 
you not to use the large feed tube on 
this machine with machines built by 
other manufacturers.

If you have any questions about the safety 
feature of your Cuisinart
